This would be cool, and I personally would be all for it... but it
perhaps will not be that clear at pointing the user to think to
hyperthreading. :-P

While this one, although a bit more "boring" than the above, would
probably be something quite valuable to have!

I can only think of rather expensive ways of implementing it, involving
going through all the cpupools and, for each cpupool, through all its
cpus and check the topology relationships, but perhaps there are others
(I'll think harder).

Also, we are certainly not talking about hot paths.

Juergen?
